Introduction to PISTOL

​

Introduction to Pistol is a NON Approved NRA Class - formerly the NRA First Steps Pistol Class till it was discontinued by the NRA. We have felt this course has a place for new shooters seeking to learn about gun safety and have kept it on as a NON-Approved NRA Class - Introduction to Pistol Class.

This course is designed to provide a hands-on introduction to safe handling and proper orientation to one specific pistol action type for classes of five or fewer students.

This gun class is at least two hours long and includes classroom and range time learning to shoot a specific pistol action type. Students will learn the NRA's rules for safe gun handling; the particular pistol model parts and operation; ammunition; shooting fundamentals; and continued opportunities for skill development, and live fire training.

​No “Pocket Pistols” which are a very small handgun usually in .25, .32, or .380 calibers. Their small size and complexity will greatly increase the difficulty level of learning new techniques and could cause increased frustration on the part of the student.
